THE NEED FOR A NEW CAMPAIGN CULTURE WITHIN OUR PEOPLE: THE 2023 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION AND THE REST written by KEMKA S. IBEJI


I read lots of articles that are supposed to be campaigns for those who aspire to lead or represent our people on our several platforms from their supporters with dismay.

It's a charming horror of sad types that our people brandish knowledge and wisdom from the wrong prisms.

Does it mean that your candidates do not have agenda and plans for the people they want to lead or represent? What about the slanderous missives and advertorials?

I think all these belittle the noble art of leadership. I believe that those who are supporting candidates should be ladies and gentlemen in preparation for leadership. This is because leadership starts from following. If you follow wrongly, you will definitely lead wrongly for those who never followed never lead well.

Compatriots, campaigns are occasions to educate your followers and the masses on your dreams for them and how, if necessary, you have prepared yourself to achieve them.

Name calling, castigation, slandering and all manner of libellous vituperations that are constantly flashed on the audience are in bad taste. Political parties are merely vehicles to rise to power and not camps in divide for hostilities.

Our style of campaigns show emptiness of ambitions and the idleness of our minds. These have also left many of us as enemies rather than becoming friends after this phase.

I enjoin our candidates to put their houses in order and reshape their supporters and image makers on the virtues and goodwill they intend to spread.

As we prepare for the Presidential Election election this week, it imperative that we call our minds to these;

Ndị Igbo deserve a turn

Ndị Igbo should be citizens of Nigeria

Igbo land ought to be found in the scheme of affairs in Nigeria

Our businesses across Nigeria need to be respected and preserved

Igbos will thrive in a Nigeria that sustains equity, justice, fairness, equality before the law and rule of law 

The Nigerian economy is in comatose and only an experienced wealth creator can help it rise

Our brothers and sisters, our children and folks deserve a greater future

Our actions and inactions will wait for us in posterity.

Remember that Peter Obi remain the best candidate for a better Nigeria in 2023 and anything less than his victory at the polls will mean a big national loss. 

I wish all our people and all Nigerians great election experience with the best possible outcome.

I am,

KEMKA S. IBEJI

THE OUTLAWS IN THE SOUTHWEST AND THEIR ENABLER: THE AREA BOY CALLED OBA OF LAGOS Written by KEMKA S. IBEJI

Rilwan Akiolu  Till that area boy called Oba of Lagos is thrown into prison for his criminal calls during several election periods for the killing of Igbos in Lagos and his threat to murder Igbos in Yoruba land, that crime of segregation against the law of Nigeria, by some outlaws in the southwest, will continue. The law asserts that all Nigerians are free to live in any part of Nigeria and exercise their rights and enjoy their privileges as well. Just saying that an Igbo man can't vie for the governorship of Lagos State alone is a crime punishable by the laws of Nigeria. But what? Each election period we see plenteous crimes from all fours of Yoruba land with recklessness mindless of the law. But the federal government has always looked away. But a Yoruba man is ruling Nigeria which covers Igbo land. Is that conquest or something else? The problem that will consume the entire country (Nigeria) will start from here. The Igbos suffered the most grievous genocide in the history of Ni...

LET US CLING TO THE OLD SCIENCE TILL MODERN SCIENCE CLEARS OUR SUSPICION OF ITS ILLEGITIMATE GIFT TO FEMINISM IN THE SCIENCE OF REPRODUCTION Written by KEMKA S. IBEJI

Image
In Philosophy of the Sciences, a school of thought led by Karl Popper held that the methodology of the sciences is "Conjectures and Refutations".  But in a general consideration of philosophical methods, we recall a vibrant philosophical methodology called Dialects. Most Philosophy Scholars refer to this method as the Socratic Method. But as an African Philosopher who has the right foundation of Philosophy and have joined the unraveling of the truth of Africa as the cradle of Philosophy and, inferentially or consequently, civilization, I do not bless the crime of Western Philosophy and their jaundiced history with attributing or ascribing that revered philosophical methodology to an intellectual thief as Socrates. No! I therefore prefer to deal with DIALECTICS. So in Dialects, and attending to the application of philosophical super methodologies on the sciences, our intellectual surge adopts a logico mathematical super saunter that moves from thesis, through antithesis to syn...
